Alterations at Dream Dress Bridal

Due to increased demand, we are not able to offer alterations on items not purchased from Dream Dress Bridal. The only exception would be a wedding dress not purchased from us, but the bridesmaid dresses or tuxedos were. We offer in house alterations at a rate of $15/hour for our local customers. While most places charge different prices for different services, our seamstress charges a flat hourly rate. Our seamstress has over 30 years experience and enjoys any challenge you may have for her.

Appointments are required and can be made by calling (207) 974-3050.

Payment plans

Dream Dress Bridal offers payment plans as a convenience to our custumers. Payment plans are available for in store or phone orders only.

We offer two types of payment plans:

In-stock collection:

To start a payment plan, 25% of the total cost (plus tax) must be put down on in stock gowns. This amount is non-refundable.

The remainder will be divided into a 6 month payment plan (or less if the customer's wedding is under 6 months.) Payment is expected every 30 days. There is a 10% monthly storage fee that will be assessed for every 30 days that payment does not occur.

If payment is not received for 3 consecutive months, the item(s) will be returned to the sales floor without notice.

In the event of a cancellation by the customer or Dream Dress Bridal, all monies paid (less the 25% and any fees/surcharges) will be returned to the customer in the form of store credit with a 90 day expiration.

To be ordered:

When placing an order in the store, 50% of the total cost must be paid up front. We accept all major credit cards, checks with a valid ID, or cash. Orders are placed every Monday and you will be notified when your item(s) arrive at the store.

The remaining balance is due within 10 days of the item's arrival.

After arrival of the item, for every 10 days that payment is not made, the customer will incur a fee of 10% of the remaining balance.

On the 60th day after arrival, the item(s) will be sent to the sales floor and the customer forfeits all monies paid.

Dream Dress Bridal will not be responsible for wrong sizes if the wearer was not present to be measured by a Dream Dress employee.

Unless the measurements of the item ordered differ from those recorded at the time of the fitting, Dream Dress Bridal will not be responsible for the size of the item being too large or too small.
